Tag Archives: Sunday

The weather has been so gloomy on the weekend I have “neglected” my veggie garden. It’s been watered as I waited for my seed to send out seedlings. Well they have, and it’s nice weather on a Sunday. So out to my plots to wend the soak-er hose around the veggies that have come up.

1st plot: lettuce, radishes, & beets

This is my first year with a second plot. I’m not planting much more. I usually have tomatoes in pots. I got a volunteer last year and it did so well I expanded from it’s location for plot two.

Plot 2: tomatoes, green beans, & cucumbers

I’m using the pots for herbs in the warm in the spring corner of my yard.

Reused pavers & tiles for a sit spot.

As you can tell from some of the photos my “Garden” is a work in progress.

And one more. I have been unsuccessful for 3 years running in getting a watermelon. This year: new spot, in lots of sun. Both hoses near for lots of water.

More of Sunday. I can not seem to get moving today. I have been sitting in front of one screen or the other. I will have to get moving soon or I will become completely disgusted by my self. Fortunately a few hours of speed cleaning usually does the trick. But no piles of clutter tidied today.

Wednesday starts my chocolate fast. I wonder how I will react to it. Will it be a simple observance of a habit? Will I freak out and CRAVE chocolate to the point of scumming? Have I already invested to much energy into this fast/lent? *:)

The thing is I need to look into my compulsions. Even one a relative harmless as chocolate consumption. Personal habits can be controlling in way we do not expect, so I am looking in-word. I was very clear in this last year, but so far 2011 has been a slide. So here I write, and starting Wednesday I will looking deeply into my desire for chocolate. And possibly see into other patterns, good and bad.

Not much to talk about today. It’s a rainy Sunday. I am home from teaching yoga and I can safely assume I will not be out gardening.

I t would be lovely if I then used that energy to sore a pile of papers, or the needs sewing pile in the spare room. But I will probably just surf the web until I can justify sitting in front watching my shows.

So the question is… What do I get from pulling weeds that is more satisfying then sorting clutter. Is it that I have created the clutter?
